The Word of God

How do we live on every word
that issues from the mouth of God?
Words crumble in our hands,
they break and bend.
How could they feed a starving man?
But when all that we eat turns to ash
and still hunger rages on inside
perhaps this is what our fainting spirits ask:
that you, Lord, would be our bread and wine.
